Three things: 1) Awesome 2) EMP resistance is a bonus 3) i have a metal duplex box you can have to mount the timer on.

What we have right now is a pretty old-school mercury thermostat. It's dead simple to change the wires around (screws not solder). This week I'll pick up one of these: http://www.intermatic.com/Products/Timers/InWallTimers/Springwound_Auto-Off_Timers/FFCommercialSeries/FF6H.aspx and wire it up in series with the thermostat. It looks like I should be able to do it without so much as cutting or soldering existing wires. It won't cost more that $25 and will keep us from running the AC longer then we mean to.

It shouldn't be too much work to switch out the old analogue one with a digital one with timer function.

If so, we could mount a servo under it that knocks it to a higher temp setting at around 9:30 or so, then get sout of the way again. If the a/c is already off, nothing happens. No need to automatically turn it on as the servo would be out of the way in the morning for the next person to use the thermostat. This would be a fun little into to electronics project someone could tackle at the next circuit night.
